The race will be held on May 16-17, 2026, featuring a fast and runnable 75KM trail course with less than 4,000 meters of elevation gain.

Good luck to Sir Francis and Leomar as they represent the team in this challenging race. Stay strong, trust your training, and keep pushing until the finish line.

Zamboanga United Runners is locked in and ready to take on the brutal 33KM uphill challenge this May 3, 2026. From Curuan to Sibuco, this isn’t just a run, it’s a battle of strength, endurance, and pure will.

No shortcuts. No excuses. Just grind. 💪
To Almo, Sir Francis, Leomar, Jeron, Airon, Dona, Sam, Rica, and Val.
Bring the fire. Let every step speak, every climb test your limits, and every drop of sweat prove what you’re made of.
This course will push hard, but we push harder. Pain is temporary. Pride is forever.
Conquer the climb. Own the road. Leave your mark.

See you at the finish line! 🏁
